Chapter 982: Using Your Body for Food
Duan Yiwei had already asked someone to hire a boat at the seaside, so that he could go to Quzhou Prefecture by sea, transfer to land in Quzhou Prefecture, and then rush to Ganqing Prefecture.
Duan Yiwei had no relatives in the mainland, so he could only temporarily follow Lin Feng to Ganqing Prefecture, and then find a way to settle down in the eight prefectures of Zhenxi.
Lin Feng also promised him on the way that he would ask someone to send them and their son by boat to Sanjiang or Shanglin Mansion.
In short, it is a very simple matter to arrange for them to settle down in the eight prefectures in the west of the town, especially Duan Yiwei, who has excellent skills and is a talent that is urgently needed in all prefectures and states.
The journey from Changzhi Prefecture to the seaside pier was smooth, and there was a wooden boat waiting at the pier.
Duan Yiwei had already paid the boat fare, so he got on board and left without any further ado.
At this point, several people finally felt relieved. Looking at the gradually receding coastline, the land was endless and there were no pursuers.
With a relaxed mood, everyone had a smile on their face.
The cruelty and ferocity of the pirates left a shadow in their hearts. Even the women in the pirate family had a low status and were abused all day long.
Lin Feng knew the temperament of these pirates very well. If there were no rules, he would have wanted to follow his body and kill them all in Changzhi City.
However, his body was affected by the broken sword, and during this period of time, he was suppressed and weakened a lot by Lin Feng, so he would not act impulsively easily anymore.
This made Lin Feng feel a little relieved, at least he felt that this extremely evil creature was not uncontrollable.
As long as he can control himself, with Lin Feng's temperament, he will naturally not cause any big trouble.
The wooden boat is quite large and has a cabin in the middle.
There were four men on the boat, one at the helm, two drawing lots, and one sitting at the bow.
Lin Feng found a corner, sat cross-legged alone, and closed his eyes to rest.
The wind is calm today. The wooden boat creaks and rocks as it slowly sails into the blue sea and blue sky.
Although the sea route is half the distance of the land route, the wooden boat is slow and takes about the same time as traveling by car. It just saves energy and is not tiring.
According to the boatman, it takes three days and two nights to travel from Changzhi Prefecture to Quzhou Prefecture on the sea.
The four men on the boat have been sailing on the sea for many years and rarely see women.
His strong body has no place to vent. Not to mention seeing a woman, even seeing a sow makes him feel like a fairy.
Cheng Yue was wearing men's clothes and was thin, so she was not noticeable.
But the two women were about thirty years old, with ordinary looks but plump figures, which just met the aesthetic tastes of these sailors.
Several sailors often took turns rowing the boat and passed by the cabin with scorching eyes that made the two women shiver.
Duan Yiwei had not yet recovered from his sudden departure. He was still wondering why he hadn't taken the hundreds of taels of silver hidden in the house with him. He was really blind.
Duan Xing's whole mind is on Lin Feng, but Lin Feng doesn't want to pay attention to him. This kid doesn't know what's good for him.
Lin Feng was entrusted by Duan Yiwei to take Duan Xing away from the wolf's den, but the boy deliberately revealed the secret and let Pu Liuyong intercept him.
Therefore, Lin Feng never gave Duan Xing a good look.
The wooden boat sailed until nightfall, then dropped anchor and spent the night on the sea.
The boatman started to make a fire and cook.
The money Duan Yiwei paid for the wooden boat included three meals.
Moreover, the boat is chartered alone, with no other passengers, and it sails alone.
A lot of silver was spent.
But it was agreed that there would be three people, but now there are six people, so the boatman naturally has to raise the price.
The leading boatman dragged Duan Yiwei to the stern, and the two began to discuss the price.
Duan Yiwei could speak the pirates' language, so there was no problem in communicating between the two.
The boatman was a sturdy man in his forties. He had no extra fat on his body and looked very strong and powerful. He had been drifting on the sea for many years, and his skin was dark and shiny.
"Boss, you have three more people now. How much do you think about the price?"
Duan Yiwei smiled and said, "Don't worry, Captain. I'll give you the silver. How about I double the previous price?"
The captain shook his head and said, "Boss, it's not about money. We didn't prepare that much food. You have three extra people and they have nothing to eat."
Duan Yiwei smiled bitterly and said, "Boss, if you don't eat for three days and two nights, you'll die. How can you not give me food?"
The captain said firmly: "We can't help it. Your breaking of the appointment is not our fault."
Duan Yiwei frowned and said, "How about doubling the money?"
He was helpless. Who knew that he would be forced to leave? If he was forced to stay, the city lord's son would have so many men killed that he would not have an easy time. Even if he didn't die, he would be skinned alive.
The captain spread his hands and said, "Even if you give me more silver, I still can't afford that much food."
Duan Yiwei was a little annoyed: "Why didn't you tell me when we were at the dock?"
"You've been urging us to sail faster, so I don't have time to talk."
"Giving you money won't work. Tell me what to do."
Seeing that Duan Yiwei was at his wit's end, the captain chuckled and glanced into the cabin.
"Boss, could you please let us have some fun with your two waitresses? That'll be a discount on our meal. What do you think?"
Duan Yiwei was stunned. It turned out that these pirates had taken a fancy to his two maids.
"That won't do. They are all girls from good families. How could they do such a shameful thing?"
The captain sneered: "Then you will have nothing to eat. You can't blame me for this."
Duan Yiwei was confused. They didn't want money, they just came for the woman. If he didn't agree to their request, where would he get food in this vast ocean?
If three people have no food to eat, who can go without eating?
It must be Duan Yiwei and his two wives who have no food to eat, because the three of them joined temporarily.
Duan Yiwei turned around and walked into the cabin, glanced at the two women, then walked up to Lin Feng, squatted down, and spoke in a low voice.
"Brother Shu, there is something I want to discuss with you."
They were talking at the stern of the boat. Lin Feng had heard it all and knew why Duan Yiwei was looking for him.
"what's up?"
Lin Feng asked calmly without opening his eyes.
"Brother Shu, the boatman is up to no good. I promised him three times the boat fare, but he refused, saying he didn't have enough food for six people."
"What do they want?"
"They're after...women."
Lin Feng wanted to laugh but held back: "Do we have it?"
Duan Yiwei smiled bitterly and said, "I have two maids here. They were assigned to me by the city lord as my assistants. They have been helping me all the time. How can I let them take on this matter?"
Lin Feng opened his eyes and glanced at Duan Yiwei.
"The boatmen are after women, and if you don't let them bear the consequences, will you let your son bear the consequences?"
"Brother Shu, you're joking. I just want you to speak up and say something fair."
Lin Feng nodded and said, "Well, to be fair, I think there's nothing wrong with them using their bodies to make a living."
"what?"
Duan Yiwei was stunned for a moment and speechless.
Lin Feng closed his eyes again.
He originally thought that the boatman and the two women were all from a pirate family. They were his own family, so who played with whom had nothing to do with him.
